Is there anyone in the USA that can rebuild and or re-valve Gaz shocks. I want mine rebuilt and have some different valve setting I would like to try.

I don't know. Drop Jack a line. According to the Gaz site, he is one of 2 US Distributors. Actually, I thought he was the only one. I don't think he has rebuilding capability, but he might know somebody or can contact GAZ direct.

You might try converting to afco racing dampers that anybody can rebuild and purchase individual parts. Check out speedway motors circle track catalog.
